Definitions
- This invention pertains to apparatus useful in the manufacture of tires. More particularly, this invention pertains to a multi-piece sealing sleeve useful with a tire shaping drum to facilitate building and shaping of a tire carcass of the type used in the manufacture of radial automotive tires.
- Tires such as for example radial automotive tires, of the type having an inner liner, a plurality of body plies, sidewalls, and a plurality of beads disposed proximate an inner circumference of the tire, are known in the art. It is understood generally that in traditional tire manufacture, following initial preparation of various components to be used, a generally cylindrical tire carcass is built through a process of assembling various components of a tire onto one or more tire building drums. Such tire carcasses normally include tire components such as multiple plies of tire bands, yarns, and one or more annular reinforcing tire beads at opposite ends of the tire bands.
- the tire carcass is expanded to a toroidal shape with the plies of tire bands forming an outer circumference of the toroid and the tire beads forming inner circumferences of the toroid.
- additional material is added to the tire carcass to form an uncured or "green” tire.
- the green tire is then formed into a desired finished geometry and cured to allow the tire to retain the finished geometry, thereby completing manufacture of the tire.
- One apparatus and method useful in expanding a tire carcass to a toroidal shape is a tire shaping drum of the type discussed in United States Patent No. 4,325,764, issued to Appleby et al. (hereinafter "the '764 patent") .
- a tire carcass is placed over a tire shaping drum having a pair of segmented, radially expandable annular support structures, each support structure defining a radially expandable bead seat for establishing a firm frictional connection between the support structure and a reinforcing bead of the tire carcass.
- the annular support structures defining the bead seats are typically adjustably repositionable proximate one another along an axial dimension of the tire shaping drum to assist both in mating the bead seats to the reinforcing beads of the tire carcass and in shaping the tire carcass to a toroidal shape.
- the tire shaping drum is adapted to allow injection of air or other fluid between the tire carcass and a portion of the tire shaping drum between the bead seats to allow the tire carcass to be expanded to a toroidal shape.
- An annular sealing sleeve of a resilient material such as rubber, polymer, or the like, is provided along portions of the annular support structures between each radially expandable bead seat and an inner portion of the tire shaping drum to form a substantially airtight engagement between the tire carcass and the portion of the tire shaping drum interior of the bead seats.
- This expansion is typically accomplished through use of an annular frame having a plurality of inwardly facing hooks which are each extendable and retractable between a collapsed position and an expanded position.
- the hooks are adapted to be selectively extended inwardly of the annular frame to engage the replacement sleeve and selectively retracted toward the annular frame to stretch the replacement sleeve to an expanded geometry.
- the annular frame carrying the expanded annular sealing sleeve can then be positioned with respect to the tire shaping drum to surround the bead seat and inner portions of the annular support structure.
- the hooks of the annular frame can be selectively extended inwardly of the annular frame and disengaged from the annular sealing sleeve to allow the annular sealing sleeve to contract to fit along the bead seat and inner portions of the annular support structure.
- a multi-piece sealing sleeve for use with a tire shaping drum is disclosed herein.
- a typical tire shaping drum can include a support structure having a base portion and an annular, radially expandable and collapsible structure defining a bead seat.
- the bead seat can be radially expandable to engage a surrounding bead portion of a tire carcass.
- the multi-piece sealing sleeve comprises an annular first layer of substantially air- impermeable material having an inner edge sized to surround the tire shaping drum base portion and an outer edge extending radially outwardly to overlie at least a portion of the radially expandable and collapsible structure of the tire shaping drum.
- An annular second layer of substantially air- impermeable material is provided and sized to overlie and establish sealing engagement with at least a portion of the annular first layer and the bead seat portion of the tire shaping drum.
- the first and second layers thus cooperate to establish a substantially airtight seal between the tire shaping drum base portion and the bead seat.
- a fastener for securing at least one of the first and second layers along the radially expandable and collapsible structure of the tire shaping drum.
- the fastener is defined by at least one annular band sized to circumferentially surround and exert compression along at least a portion of at least one of said first and second layers.
- the fastener is configured to fit within a fastening groove defined by the radially expandable and collapsible structure of the tire shaping drum.

- the seating ring 46 is fitted to the annular intersection between the base flange 30 and the base portion 32, and is fabricated to be more resistant to elastic deformation than the remainder of the first layer 12, such that the seating ring 46 retains its shape as the remainder of the first layer 12 is reconfigured between the collapsed position ( Figure 3) and the expanded position ( Figure 4).
- the seating ring 46 is formed having a thicker cross-section than the thickness of the remainder of the first layer 12.
- the seating ring 46 is at least partially formed from a substantially non-elastic material, such as steel cable or other similar material.
- a circumferential clamp (not shown) is provided to secure the inner edge 40 of the first layer 12 in place along the base flange 30 proximate the base portion 18.

- a central portion 42 of the first layer 12 is capable of radial expansion and contraction in order to allow the first layer 12 to maintain an overlying relation over the base flange 30 and the sealing flange 36, thereby maintaining the airtight seal between the sealing flange 36 and the inboard end 32 of the base portion 18, as the bead seat 20 is expanded and contracted between the contracted position and the expanded position.
- the central portion 42 is formed of an elastically deformable material, and preferably a resilient deformable material, such as rubber, polymer, silicon rubber, or the like, such that the first annular layer 12 is capable of expanding and contracting to remain generally conforming along the interior surface 38 of the base flange 30 and the surface of the sealing flange 36 as the annular support structure 16 is reconfigured between the collapsed position ( Figure 3) and the expanded position ( Figure 4).
- the first layer central portion 42 defines a series of expandable and collapsible annular folds 48 formed of a resilient deformable material as described above.
- the folds 48 allow the central portion 42 to unfold toward a flattened configuration when the support structure 16 is moved toward the expanded position (see Figure 4) and to return to a folded configuration when the support structure 16 is moved toward the collapsed position (see Figure 3).
- the central portion 42 is configured to stretch and contract such that the central portion 42 maintains a planar configuration along the interior surface 38 of the base flange 30 and the surface of the sealing flange 36 as the support structure 16 is reconfigured between the collapsed position and the expanded position.
- the second layer 14 is defined by a generally tubular expandable and contractable sleeve of material which, like the first layer 12, is substantially impermeable to air.
